Wow, look at this--an honest to goodness listing in another person's blog! Thank you Bonnie!

While trying to get up close for macro pics of my scarves during my Etsy photo shoot today, I accidentally took some interesting art photos--go figure!!!












And my three absolute favorites:

Shop Prepping

So I've just spent the last few hours taking and editing pictures and posting new items to my shop. I can't believe how long it takes for me to get 5 decent pictures and to write the description copy for each item. I decided to shorten my pain by putting four items in each listing. These are my water bottle carriers, the Watergirl (the ones with the frill at the top and pocket with cutesy button) and the Waterboy (the more plain, manly? ones with the longer straps).

I'm thinking of doing the scarves in a similar way, four per listing, so my page doesn't seem so overwhelming when it bombards you with hundreds of scarves, just one after another, on and on. What do you think? Should I list each one separately or condense them? I've seen people do both.

Now I'm off to dream up more items related to the Back-to-School and Dorm Room categories. I have some ideas, but they're pretty wacky, so I don't know if they'll work out or not. I'll let you know.

Back Homery

Noah, you weren't trying to ride my bike again were you?
Always a dead giveaway, the grease stains around the muzzle, not to mention the guilty look on his face...


The crocheted bowls I am trying to felt, if I ever figure out that process




And, too late for 4th of July, or even the 4th of August for that matter, but I couldn't resist this patriotic salute to Honda, the Japanese car maker that seems to have a corner on my parking "garage". Don't you just love the cute little blue one on the left?
